Crystalline Waterproofing: Principles and Suitable Uses

Water-borne crystalline systems penetrate concrete and block pores—substrate and craft matter; not universal.

Concept

Typical uses

  • Concrete structures, shower trays and slabs.
  • Thin-build or faster programmes where the product allows.
  • Negative-side uses only per manufacturer rules.

Limits

  • Not for every finish or unrepaired structural damage.
  • Oil and standing water hurt penetration.
  • Trained applicators required.
